Flex-Pause Training Book - Now available at Amazon and Google Books

Flex-Pause Training book now available Amazon  Kindle and paperback Google Books  Ebook Google Play Audiobook  AI-narrated Build the Athletic Physique That Lasts - Without Letting Training Take Over Your Life Most training programs assume you have time, energy and perfect consistency. Real life doesn’t work that way. Work, family, stress and injuries make it difficult to follow rigid workout routines. When training becomes hard to maintain, progress stalls and eventually stops. Flex-Pause Training is a simple, time-efficient system designed for real life. This system combines rest-pause principles with simple programming to deliver effective workouts in a fraction of the time. No complicated routines. No strict schedules. No wasted effort. Instead of chasing optimal plans that demand more time than you can give, this method focuses on what actually works long term: • Minimal effective training volume • Flexible scheduling • Joint-friendly exercise selection • Sustainable...

New Book project started

I have not been very active on this blog lately. But there has been a reason. Life happens and there has not been time or energy to give towards training and writing. Demanding day job and my three kids is where my time and attention has gone lately.

But the good news is that out of all this a new training system was born. I have finished writing the first draft and updated the training tool and exercise library to fit this new program.

It is about making the most out of minimal time with flexible rest-pause training. It is suitable for busy adults and students who have too much on their plate but want to stay in great shape. Like any training system it has taken some time to craft and master.



This will not be as heavy as the Bodyweight Strength Training 2.0 which could use an update on the exercise library and re-writing most of the chapters. It is a bit too heavy with the calculations. But it was geared towards bodyweight training enthusiasts who need a one rep max based bodyweight training system.

For this new book I try to keep it short and dense since after all it is about training with a busy schedule.

Push-Ups compared to bench press - with calculator

  Push-ups compared to bench press Have you ever wondered how you would compare the different types of push-ups to a barbell press? Well I did but couldn’t find a good push-up to bench press calculator. So I did some research online, made my own calculator based on the actual load and verified the results. Of course direct comparison is not possible because the two exercises are completely different but we can compare the loading parameters between barbell press and push-ups. So a fair warning if you can bench press 1.5x bodyweight you are not able to do one arm push-ups or the other way around. It just doesn’t work that way. But if you currently can do one arm push-ups with good form you could probably reach the 1.5x bodyweight bench 1RM relatively fast by practising the actual lift. In the following we will look at: Strength standards - how much you should actually press to be intermediate or advanced 1RM vs 6-10RM for bodyweight exercises Push-up variations and actual load Top a...

Free bodyweight strength training programs on Google Sheets - 2.0 Update

 I've been using different training apps for years now but they all have had some features that I didn't quite like. So I decided to make a better google sheets file that had most of the features I needed.

So this is aimed for beginners and intermediates who are looking on how to begin and progress with their bodyweight strenght training. Since all the exercises are categorized, videos on the exercises are included and guides to each progression is available making progress could not be easier! ;) 2.0 Mobile view What it includes: Pre made bodyweight strength training programs based on 1-4x week Fullbody, Upper/lower and bodypart splits Customizable workout template with up to 4 work out days a week One finger logging with mobile phone Guides included to each progression Video links included to each ...

Pistol squat compared to barbell squat - with calculator

 When you don’t have access to a squat rack and weights what would be the best way to train your legs? This is a tough question that no one seems to have a clear answer. In this article I’m going to teach you different bodyweight and weighted single leg exercises and find out how the loading parameters compare to the regular back squat. A while ago I wrote an extensive article “Guide to single leg training”. Link here: https://twoworkouts.blogspot.com/2020/08/guide-to-bodyweight-and-weighted-single.html It was a bit too long and detailed so I thought I would rephrase it and also write a guide to all the single leg squat progression. Single leg squats compared to back squat There are two ways to estimate the load being lifted for the single leg squats. Simple method to estimate the equal back squat load is to estimate that the whole bodyweight is lifted and not take into account rotating forces. A more accurate way to calculate the actual load takes rotating forces into account and ...
